Falling Stars

There were less feelings than I believed would be
Not even batting an eye, maybe somehow I already knew
Now that it's become real, it seems right to escape
With more memories becoming empty, this moment is all there is

Pushing back against what cannot sway, I twist my thoughts at ease
Sadly, no longer as beautiful as they used to be
You were more than wonderful when the veil was all there was
Seeing, no longer can I say you're the same...

There are no angels made with flesh and blood
Should the wind wipe the tears from my eyes
Let it also take the memories as it falls
A shooting star shining where you can't see

Nothing more than strangers walking the same road
Once something was there, no longer can either remember
Only recalling searching for the cure to loneliness
More empty than before and still alone as I look at you

There are no demons made with flesh and blood
Should the sky carry away the earth beneath me
Let it also take the memories as I fall
A shooting star shining where you can't see

There are less feelings than I believed still inside
Now that it's become real, I can't escape...

This is absolutely brilliant Joshua, it has an elegance that goes beyond the words. These are my favorites lines - a painful altruism, cushioned by the only comfort that seems apparent:

There are no angels (or demons) made with flesh and blood
...
A shooting star shining where you can't see

But I love every line of this, from beginning to end.

I appreciate it, MoonRide! I actually wrote it in one sitting and in not that much time. Impressive for me, haha!
